This is why the parties should have nothing to do with the electoral process. A handful of unelected hacks determine who we get to choose. Give these affairs back to non-partisan groups like the League of Women Voters and abolish closed primaries. They're inherently undemocratic.

The TWO PARTY system is " inherently undemocratic ".

We don't have a two-party system, we have a system that allows many parties. It's just the two biggest parties that have a stranglehold on our electoral process.

They/them can’t get rid of Tim Ryan! He’s angry now, and he’s not going to take it anymore.

ALL the Democrat presidential candidates are a sorry bunch . They are all such NICE PEOPLE in contrast to NASTY Donald Trump and his even nastier white working class " deplorable " supporters.
None of " progressive " Democrat stars take any clear stand on hard issues . They do not oppose the capitalist system . They do not oppose our imperialist wars . They do not oppose the shadow government of the United States - which serves the " Greater Israel " agenda : war in the Middle East and war with Russia over Syria and Crimea.
Within the United States the Democrats promote the New McCarthyism and even the new " sexual McCarthyism. They instigate RACE war with their vicious " identity politics " and political correctness. How ironic that secular Zionist Jew intellectuals make themselves the high priests of political correctness and the only JUST JUDGES of hate speech and hate crime. The United Nations declared Zionism a form of RACISM decades ago .
Is it impudent to ask for affirmative action for Goyim Christians and Catholics in the mainstream news media ? Democrat Senator Chuck Schumer declares himself Israel's " guardian angel " . Perhaps HE not Donald Trump is the real " agent of a foreign power ".

"Democratic", Ron, not "Democrat". Yes, there is a difference and you know exactly what it is.

You support a racist, Ronnie.

If that is true , then why do so many Israeli Jews also support a RACIST , President Donald Trump ?

Did you forget to take your meds again, Ronnie? Your anxiety seems to be getting worse.

Will any Zionist Jew here say their real name and occupation ?

What does your therapist say about your vile racism and antisemitism, Ronnie? Hmm?

What does your therapist say about neurotic Jews including , no doubt , himself ?

You are sick, Ronnie. You need to take your meds.

" Generalizing in such horrific terms about a group of people based upon their race and socio-economic class goes against everything .. "
PUBLIC RADIO in the United States lacks any CHRISTIAN voice . There is no dissent on Zionist Apartheid Israel . NONE !
" Generalizing in such horrific terms about a group of people based upon their race and socio-economic class goes against everything .. "
THE ABCs even of Marxist socialism : If a majority of Jews in the United States and in Israel cannot give up their loyalty to capitalism , to American imperialism, to Zionism , then they make themselves CLASS ENEMIES of the human race . Even Leon Trotsky - from a Jewish background - would agree with me.

Intelligent people usually find meaningful CONNECTIONS . Way back in 1965 Black Muslim Malcolm X made a connection between racism and capitalism , between racism and American imperialism. No surprise that the FBI - which today " progressive " Democrats slobber over as a bulwark of " OUR democracy " - had both Malcolm X and Martin Luther King assassinated . Count on RACIST Ron to tell you these things.

How often has the CHRISTIAN WHITE WORKING CLASS been abused by NPR and the New York Times ?

Your anxiety is getting worse, Ronnie.

If there are TWO Christians within talking distance of you at any time of the day , see if they agree with you about Radical Ron's Blog Spot .

No one is interested in your hateful racism and antisemitism, Ronnie. You have a mental illness. You need to keep taking the meds that you were prescribed. Good luck!

If " no one is interested " why do I have more than 3000 up votes ?

Do you recommend a cheap Zionist Jew psychiatrist ? This reference to " taking meds " offends anybody who has the unpleasantness of working with you ( any CHRISTIANS there ? ) who might need prescribed meds to cope with real " mental illness " or stress .
Your Zionist Jew boss cannot even exhort you to be DECENT here .

Secular Zionist Jews control the mainstream news media in the United States . Prove me wrong ? WHO ELSE decided that " Radical Ron " should be banned on any web site for thinking , for example, that Iran had as much right to a nuclear arsenal as Zionist Apartheid Israel ?
For THAT " Radical Ron " was banned ( by some Christians ? ) by Brown University ( " Brown Daily Herald " ) .
Can't my CENSORS at least show their names and faces ? I am a LAW ABIDING Christian democratic socialist . Secular Zionists Jews right here at NPR / WBUR feel free to smear and harass me . And NEVER respond intelligently to ANY point I make .

Your language is inflammatory, abusive and xenophobic. Try speaking like rational person.

Should biased Zionist Jews so predominant in the mainstream FAKE NEWS media be the final and most credible judges of who is RACIST and ANTI-SEMITIC ? And RATIONAL ?
What is so " inflammatory " about TRUTH ? Is TRUTH anti-Semitic ?
I have thousands of UP VOTES . How many racists quote Malcolm X ( " Show me a capitalist and I'll show you a blood sucker " . ) ? How many racists quote Anti-Zionist Jews like Howard Zinn, Noam Chomsky , Norman Finkelstein ? They all thought that Zionism was a disaster for the Jews as a people .
Why is WHITE SUPREMACIST President Donald Trump so popular in Apartheid Israel ?
Why is it OK for the mainstream news media to daily smear white working class CHRISTIANS as " deplorables " for voting for Trump ? The Israel Jews re-elected Netanyahu . But long ago the United Nations declared Zionism a form of racism.
Unless you think that anti-Zionism = anti-Semitism there is nothing abusive about my comments here . And certainly I'm no xenophobic . I recently made a positive reference to the legendary IWW, International Workers of the World .
As a democratic socialist I do not idolize ANY national boundaries. That is why I support the cause of the oppressed Palestinians.
The BIAS is found in the staff of NPR/WBUR . They shamelessly smear REAL socialists as RACIST and ANTI-SEMITIC .
They make sure that there are no CHRISTIAN voices in the editorial office to check them .

Wow, what a surprise, they got rid of all the Biden-alternatives, filled the stage with the media's top three favorites and the standard Democrat Zoo of exotic prospective Cabinet nominees.

Are they trying to rig it for Biden or rig it for Free Stuff For All? Just as Biden's campaign is rapidly disintegrating in a cloud of typically bizarre Biden-mouth effluvia, the media give the boot to Ryan, Bullock, Delaney and all the other marginally-electable candidates. Looks like they want Free Stuff.

Media Top 3 Favorites? You are not talking about Bernie, are you? The media has basically ignored any positive news about Bernie until just recently when he and Warren passed Biden in a poll, saying how they were "surprised" Bernie was doing so well. The fact is that Bernie has always been in second in the polls. I remember there was an article with the title similar to "Biden in first, Warren and Kamala behind." If I remember, Biden was in the low 30s in polls while Warren and Kamala were in the low teens. Bernie was in the low twenties....

As unwieldy as it is......the field will shake out on its own, since the tomato cans are running out of the little campaign cash they were able to collect over the past several months.
